DESCRIPTION:
Najib Bahri is from Tunisia. He has studied numerous world rhythms & worked with numerous international musicians from Middle-eastern, Persian, Afghani, Latin, American & N. African styles. He wants to share with you the persian drum (toumbek/tonbak).

Pls note: He is describing how to translate Middle-Eastern/North African rhythms (dom-es-tek) onto the Toumbak. For you to criticise that he is not playing classical Persian. You are right. He is not playing classical Persian. He has learned this rhythm/song after years of playing with Persian & Iraqi musicians. He just wants to share with you his prized instrument & his appreciation of Persian music. This drum is a real 1 piece instrument- not 2 piece; and is the correct size. It's a really beautiful instrument.

People, the world is getting smaller. We have loosen up, learn from one another, and appreciate other's art & culture. Pretty soon someone can play Persian/Middle-Eastern rhythms on the conga drums.
